Rules for Using Classrooms for ad hoc Events

By requesting access to one or more classrooms for an ad hoc event through the Schedules Office, all users agree to abide by the following rules.

Do not bring food or beverages into the classroom.
If you rearrange the classroom for your event, return the furnishings to the original setup before leaving. Chairs should be arranged in rows, facing the front chalkboard. The Schedules Office reserves the right to charge a maintenance fee for any room left in disarray after an event.
If you borrow chairs from another room, return them to that room.
Erase the chalkboards before leaving.
Remove your trash. The Schedules Office reserves the right to charge a fee for clean-up after an event.
Leave the classroom unlocked when you leave.
Bring a copy of your confirmation with you to your event.

Failure to comply with the above rules may jeopardize your ability to reserve space through the Schedules Office in the future.

If you are locked out of your room...

During normal business hours (9:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday), contact the Schedules Office at (617) 253-4788.
After 5:00 pm or on weekends, contact Facilities at (617) 253-1500.
Be prepared to show your reservation confirmation when a staff member arrives to unlock the classroom.

Reminders:

You are responsible for making any necessary arrangements for support services (i.e., Audio/Visual, Facilities, etc.) in advance of your event by contacting the appropriate office(s). The Schedules Office will not coordinate logistics for your event.
Classrooms may not be reserved for religious ceremonies, dramatic performances, political events, or any event that requires the use of platforms, scenery, and/or stage and additional lighting.
